Rhett, delivered before the Charleston Southern Rights Association early In April, appears to be a favorite text of the South Carolina dlsunlonists. It has been published and republished, as though It were the authorised declaration of secession faith. There la to It one sound truth at least, which might profit those to whom It waa addressed much more than the multitude of fallacies and fanciful declamations by which secession Is sought to be recommended. It will be far said Mr. Rhett, to get out of the Union than to keep out of It." There will be, in our opinion, notwithstanding all that haa passed, and is passing, great dlfilcalty to the complete withdrawing of South Carolina from the Union.

We do not mean to speak only of the obstructions In her way which might be interposed, outside of the 8tate by the steady perseverance of the federal authorities in maintaining the laws of the Union, constitutionally passed, against the attempts of all retittanta, whether lawless mobs, or mobs authorized under pretence of a State right to nullify all the lawa of vhe Union nor of the measures which self pro tection may compel the other States of the Union to take, in order to preserve their own rights and lawa from the mischievous effects of the revolutionary conduct of South Carolina. But we still believe, that, before the day of final action arrives, when the JM is to be irrevocably pronounced by which the disunion flag is to be raised by the Stato of South Carolina, in defiance of ail the other States and for the destruction of the Union, there will be a reaction among the people of that State, which will make it difficult for the disunion leaders to accomplish their objects, at least, without strenuous resistance. But if they succeed, it will a Mr. Rhett admits in ttrms, still more dillicult to keep out of th Union. Unless some rash steps, taken by the Federal Government, shall translorm the conflict from the attitude in which the secessionists of South Carolina will place the Union, of maintaining the laws against a combination to resist them, into one of direct coercion against the 8tate authorities, the sympathy of all the adjoining States will be with the regular operation of the laws, and not with the insurgents against the law.

The seceding State will be left without any pretence of aggreeslon with which to rally its neighbors on new issues, but will be allowed to enter on the peaceable enjoyment of all the necessary fruits of her secession. When her people begin to realize these, to see her commerce legally transferred to other porta, her commercial capital going to decay, her anticipated revenues cut off, and her mer. chants either ruined or driven Into the United States to save themselves from ruin, her best citterns emigrating, and those who are left, sinking under enormous taxation, credit destroyed, and all aorta of industry paralyzed, there will be a more anxious desire to get back into the Union than there it now felt any where to get out of it The grand difficulty, which Mr. Rhett himself acems to feel, will then be to resist the tendency of an awakened public sentiment, enlightened by public experience and suffering, to ruth impetuously back, and overthrow the whole mob oi secession leaders and champions which may be to the way of a restoration of the peace, prosperity and security which the Union beitows. Warm Words in Virginia.

The excitement on the suffrage question ran high in the Virginia Convention on the 8th. Since the voting we have already recorded to which the white basis and the mixed basis were both defeated, sundry propositions for om promise have been brought forward, debated, amended and withdrawn, but no vote has been taken. The parties are too uncertain and too shy to encounter the final ordeal of a division. On Thursday of last week the opposing feelings broke out with so much force that the editor of the Enquirer draws from it gloomy pressges of a storm which msy endanger the integrity of the glorious Old Commonwealth." The moving cause, was thus The result Of a popular election held to the city of Richmond had instructed Mr. J.

M. Bottt to vote for the mixed basis, which he had opposed. The closeness of the previous vote on this question made this change important The vote of Mr. Botts would carry tho mixed basis by a majority of one. The Western members, who had resisted the mixed basis with so much violence, became highly alarmed.

On the meeting of the convention, on the 8th, Mr. Bott announced this change of position, and it was met by a Western proposition, offered by Mr. Summers, to submit the question of the basis to a popu lsr vote. Mr. Scott, of Fauquier county, opposed the proposition with great zeal.

His argument, whisb exposed him to sharp retort, was, that to sub mil tbe subject of the basis of representation to a popular vote would inevitably result to the adoption of the white basis, and he wanted it understood, on the part of the East, that the white basis would not be recognized, now or ever." The Western men were not slow to seize upon this language, and to charge Mr. Scott and fait party with a determination to force upon the people basis of representation to which they are known to be opposed, and to prevent them from being consulted, because it is known that their decision will be to favor of the Western principle. Mr. Scott did not shrink from the storm he had raised He did not deny that tbe popular vote would be to favor of the white basis, as an original proposition, but he insisted that if the mixed basis were agreed upon to tbe convention it would be ratified by the people. He persisted that the proposition was an act of hostility to the Esst an unsheath sword and he declared emphatically that if this is the Western olive branch," the decision had better be left "to the strong arm the God of battles." It must be understood that it was the impression of the convention that an agreement subsists, by which, to the event of the defeat of this propoalon of Mr.

Summers, enough of the Western members would secede, to break up tbe convention, and an organization waa threatened to raise a parry for the division of the State. The defiance of Mr. Scott was met by language as defying on the other side, and a scene of much confusion ensued. The day waa spent to this sort of wordy warfare, with interruptions for conciliation which resulted in some apologetic if, and explanations between the parties, which mollify, somewhat, the intemperance of their previous conduct. The convention adjourned, however, in very bad temper, leaving the subject of the contention un adjusted, and the prospect of adjustment more remote than ever.

fpIn the debate on the anti slavery resolutions, to the Massacfaussetts Senate, Mr. Buckingham pronounced Mr. Webster not a gentleman," Buckingham was formerly editor of the Boston Courier, in which paper he was a strenuous advocate of the election of Mr. Webster to the Presidency of the United States. We believe that it waa this feeling, and his disgust at the nomination of Gen.

Taylor in 1848 as the Whig candidate, which induced his withdrawal from the press, and his sale of his paper to one who would support Gen. Tsylor. He haa since fallen into the slough of Free Soillsm, was elected a Senator on the coalition ticket, and now rails at Daniel Webster In this Style of paltry malevolence. He is a fair specimen of a black mouthed Abolitionist. Gov.

No deubt it will be very largely attended, though much less is said upon the subject of her singing than on her former appearance In our place. This, bow ever, is but natural, the novelty essential to keep thought and speculation centred on, any one object not now existing. Tbe sale of tickets yesterday; by auction was a decided failure. The highest premium obtained was less than two dollars, while some sold at an advance of only twelve and a half cents. Moreover, to the aggregate, but very few tickets were disposed of.

Barnnm upheld this system by making a short speech before the sale commenced, but it was no go." Our people think that the prices fixed on, which are from one to three dollars, according to tbe location of seats, are high enough. They, thereiore, do not care to increase them by an unnecessary competition among themselves. For the second concert this week the tickets will be told exclusively at private sale. Next week, however, the auction system la to be brought once more to vogue. If Barnnm finds It again unsuccessful, he will no doubt abandon it entirely during this second stay of Jenny Lind to our metropolis.

There are some who cast censure with no unsparing hand upon Barnum for asking such exorbitant prices, to connection with these concerts. It is certain that the prices are rather mor than our citizens were wont to pay for entertainments of a similar kind. When they took a dollar from their pocket and exchanged it for (As note of some prized songstress, they were accustomed to think that they gave full remuneration for the "value received." But the advent of Jenny Lind produced a new era. She came among us with a world wide fame for vocal talent and for every virtue. As a songstress, she was without her equal aa a wo Stan, in the fullest and beat sense of the term, without her superior probably in any land.

That tuch a one should sing to full house at any price, however high, was to be supposed. But Barnum was the only one to venture a fortune to case of failure, in the certainty of making one in case of success. Under his auspices Jenny Lind came to this country, and, as. far aa we know, he haa strictly performed every obligation. He entered into the arrange ment, meat unquestionably, to make ssoniy.

This would surely be the inducement which would tway another person in a similar matter, and Bar num, from appearances, has no great repugnance to he aping up a fair share of the "filthy lucre" especially when it msy be done without embarrassment. It seems to me, therefore, actually absurd to censure him because he demands unusual rates for Jenny Llnd's He haa thus far obtained these very readily, and to diminish them under such circumstances, would be departing somewhat from "human nature." Tbe moment one dollar will leave a greater profit than three dollars aa a price of sdmisslon, people will be very certain, if they wish so, to hear Jenny Lind sing, at the former sum. But until then, it is almost idle to think that reproaches, however general, will cause a reduction. Barnum, while his pockets continue to fill up as rapidly aa they have of late, can afford to listen to a little indignation without being grievously wounded. Notwithstanding his multiplied engagements, Barnum is juat starting out a traveling museum and menagerie.

Some months ago he deputed several persons to India to catch elephants tor this exhibition. On Monday tbe bark Regatta arrived at our port, bringing as the result, six or seven of these huge animals also several boa constrictors, monkeys, etc. It is stated that this new exhibition will be carried to London while the World's Fair la in progress. That place will be crowded enough without an accession of elephants to demand quarters. They do not stand on ceremony, but generally get all tbe room they want without much resistance.

If at all inclined for tport, on. reaching London, they might therefore, for a time at least, have things to their own fancy among the big population of tiranger in which they are come to be included. This is anniversary week" to New York, and our place ia thronged with people from other cities and country who are here to be present at the meetings. These are generally very interesting and are largely attended. Tbe Abolition society of the Garrison order holds forth this year in Syracuse.

In this city they met with so little favor, or rather so much opposition, that they concluded thla year to go elsewhere. They can be very well spared, and we will get along quite as well if, in future, they fail altogether in paying their visits to our metropolis.

The Church Warden of th Church of St. LonU and J. P. Xartoo. Appeal from tbe Second District Court of Orleans.

I There are three decisions to this case Judge Pros I ton concurring with Judge Rost to the opinion that the judgment of the lower court should be reversed, and Chief Justice Eustis and Judge 8 Udell giving separate opinions, but uniting in affirming the judge ment of the District Court. JZotf, Justice. Tbe plaintiff while employed by Ktr wan, wbo contracted with his co defendants for tbe reconstruction of the Church of St. Louis, sustained serious and permanent Injuries by the falling of the tower, and brought suit for damages under articles SV299 and 2,302 of the Code. The defendants pleaded the general Issue, and the Churchwardens farther assert that the betiding was to possession of Klrwan, and that they were not responsible.

There waa judgment egainat both defendants eolido for $2,500, and they appealed. Under the articles of tbe code named, the matter and house owner are alike responsible for slight neglect, but this case presents the question whether the rights of servants against their master or employer, hi such cases, are the same aa those of strangers. The decision to France is directly adverse to those made to England and tbe United States. It places servants In all cases on tbe same footing as strangers, while the English and American courts bold that the master ia not responsible when the servant by whose fault the injury occurred waa a person of ordinary skill and care. Tbe American and English cases have been pat upon the broad ground that tbe servant undertakes as between himself and his master to run all the ordinary risks of tbe service, and that this includes tbe risk of accidental negligence on the part of a fellow servant while to the discharge of his duty.

It would be a great error to suppose this to be an arbitrary rule. The plaintiff having been employed by the contractor stands towards the other defendants aa if he had been employed by themselves. They appeared to have exercised due discretion to the selection of an architect and builder, and if it should be true to fact that tbe architect and builder were unskilful or habitually negligent, the plaintiff wbo was working under them had a much better opportunity of discovering their deficiencies than the religious corporation whom they sued. It is, therefore, the opinion that a master ia not re sponsible to bis servant to consequence of the negligence of a fellow servant, provided that the servant injured waa at tbe time acting to his master's service, and the servant causing the injury wss a person of ordinary skill and care. Judge Slidell ia of opinion that the evidence in the case authorized the finding of the jury, as follows First, that there was no negligence or fault on tbe part of Camp contributing to the disaster by which be suffered second, that there was fault on the part of Klrwan, which did contribute to it third, that there waa also fault on tbe part of tbe corporation, through its building committee and selected superintendent, which contributed to the disaster.

Judge Slidell con cludes by concurring with the Chief Justice that the jadgment should be athrmed. In the course or a lenguy opinion, remarks tbe Chief Justice, that the undertaker wbo puts up, to the danger of the public, a building defective to plan and materials, is equally liable in principal with tbe owners for damage occasioned by its falling. A stronger moral responsibility exists on his part. The owner is rendered liable from tbe policy of the law alone. Tbe court being equally divided the judgement of the lower court is affirmed, with costs.

Municipality Ko. Ttoo vs. The Commercial Bank Appeal from the Third District Court of New Orleans. Tne plaintiffs claim a large sum as a municipal tax, Imposed upon the squsres used for the reservoir and engine of tbe Water Works, owned by the defendants. Tbe defendants deny their liability to pay the tax, on the ground that the thirty seventh article of their charter provides that their capital shall be exempt from taxation, in consideration of furnishing the city with sufficient water for extinguishing fires, and in consequence of the advantages derived by the public gen erally by the accomplishment of tbe object for which tbe company was incorporated The point upon which tbe case turns, is, whether the property of a company, where employed for the purposes designated to the eharter, and when indispensable for the accomplishment of that purpose, Is a part of its capital.

There are four opinions in the case. Judge Preston, at the close of a lengthy argument. expresses the opinion that the property sought to be taxed in this case is a part of tbe capital of the company that this capital is Invested in tbe very object for which the company was chartered that the Legis lature commanded the Investment on pain of forfeiting the charter, and to consideration of that invest ment exempted tbe whole capital of the company, including the part so invested, from taxation, and that there should be judgment for defendants with costs. Chief Justice Eustis concurs to the opinion of Judge Preston and says that the word capital to tbe charter ia made use of to a general sense, and includes the Water Works, which to his opinion is exempt from taxation. Judge Rost says that joint stock companies, besides the money and notes in their vaults and the property they own, which form together tbe trading capital of the corporation, have also their stock which, to the aggregate, ia the Joint capital of tbe shareholders.

Tbe stock is a thing to common, which is bought and sold, without reference to the assets of the corpora tion, and which rests for its marketable value partly upon those assets, and partly upon the prudence with which the company ia managed, and the credit which it enjoys. The question is which of these two capitals, in the present case, ia exempted from taxation. The capital stock being a thing to common, waa liable to taxation, and from what haa occurred in other States in relation to their own banks, and also la the Bank of the United Slates, it was feared that if banks ever became unpopular to Louisiana, the power to tax tbe stock might be exercised to such a manner aa to destroy them. Tbe object of tbe corporation to having tbe clause relied on inserted to the ehsrtera was to obtain from the Legislature tar. render of that power.

But no one ever dreamed of withdrawing from taxation all tbe taxable property which the bank might subsequently acquire, and aa their property would never be taxed higher than that of Individuals, there would have been no propriety or justice in doing so. It Is urged that the defendants have surrendered their banking privileges, and are no longer a bank. That may be. But although the operations of the company are not so extended aa they formerly were, the capital stock haa not ceased to exist, and it is to that stock that the exemption to the charter applies. It is tbe opinion, therefore, (hat the judgment for plaintiffs be affirmed.

Judge Slidell comes to the same conclusion as Judge Rost and the court being equally divided, the Judgment of the lower court, which was for the plain tiffs, stands affirmed. New Orlean Cat Light and Banking Company Vs B. Bennett B. Haynee tt Inter nor. Appeal from tbe Seventh District Court of Eaat Feliciana.

Rott, Juttice. Plaintiffs are holders of bonds issued by the Clinton and Port Hudson Railroad Company and secured by stock mortgages. The company be lng insolvent, and lis charter forfeited, the plaintiffs claim from the defendant the amount of the stock for which he subscribed, and pray that the property mortgaged by him to secure it be subjected to their claim. The District Attorney, in behalf of the State, and the liquidator, appointed under a law of tbe Stale, have Intervened, both averring the indebtedness of the de fend ant and claiming the right to recover the amount of his subscription in preference to tbe plslntlffs. The judge of the District Court dismissed the Interveners and gave Jadgment for tbe plaintiffs.

The defendant and the intervenors appealed. By the original act of incorporation, the capital of tbe railroad company waa fixed at 9100,000, and the Board of Directors were authorized to increase it to 1200.000. In 1834 banking privileges were conferred upon the company, and its capital was increased to 9500,000, one half of which waa to be raised by sub script! on for stock, and the other half by loans to be effected on the bonds of tbe company, tbe payment of which was to be secured by mortgages given by tbe stockholders. The bonds to bear interest at 5 per cent per annum, payable half yearly, and tbe princi pal to. be paid to equal portions In eight, fifteen and twenty years.

In 1836, the Gaa Light Company pur chased the entire of the bonds at par and. lent them $100,000, at 6 per cent, per annum, on the condition that the Legislature would exempt them from estah Hsning a branch at Port Hudson, which condition waa approved by an act of the Legislature, passed ta tbe same year. In 1838, defendant executed a mortgage to secure thirty six shares of stock, for the amount of which the suit waa instituted. In 1837 tbe capital stock of the railroad company was farther increased to 91,000,000, and ta 1839 the Legislature passed an act, under which the bonds of the State were issued to the company for 9500,000. By this act tbe company were to pledge to the 8tate their capital stock and give a subrogation to all the mortgages which had been executed in its favor by all tne etocknokiers.

Tbe intervenors claim the preference ta behalf of the state under this act, and it Is contended mat tne mortcarem thiaeaae could not have been pledged, because It was executed after the actof ISM, and after their bonds bad been made by the company and delivered to the Gas Bank, Bat the Supreme Court Is of opinion that whea the end sued opon ware originally received by tbe Gas Company under tbe sanction of the Legislature, it was to edniemnlailm .11 sues tarn venae were pledged to that company, and that the aet of ootween tne stock taken be Pjoimon and that which was subscribed DdHld. ikerefore, that under the contract nV. oTr.h?J!J 'Di railroad eompa toe tSLP.led? mortgage, rested to must tbereoTi11, fl stock svtbserlbed mSTL Jf00 to venors in behalf oTV! ofls37. and the Inter that, If he Is at an is to the railroad eomnsw. nort4 age it ar mm'J IIISIUIMW.

Mobile Correspondence. Special Correspondence of tbe Picayune.

Mobilx, May 16, 1851. Dear Pic, By tbe 1st proximo the business of our Southern Bank of Alabama will be conducted In their handsome new building at the corner of the public square. This banking house Is a truly elegant but plain structure, externally, while its in terior comoines every possible aooommodation, with extreme neatness, and much novelty. The safes are on the principal front, and are safer therefor. They are almost as suspended as Mahomet's coffin, aa neither top, bottom, nor sides touch wall, floor, or ceiling directly.

These two Iron chambers required nearly four tons of metal to their construction, and bave gas lights within them, with ample and ingenious ventilation. It is expected that the upper floor win be converted into the U. a room, for which It is admirably adapted, having a ceiling over fifteen feet. If this purpose be carried out, an iron stairwsy, between the bank and western wall of the new Custom Honte, will lead up to It, the space between being about twentv. five feet.

The architectural designs for the Cus tom House, are most elegant, and if made according to them will be a great ornament to the city. But I tear a mistaken economy at headquarters will greatly curtail Its fair proportions. An old military custom of Mobile is about to be revived. A regular encampment of the 1st Volunteer Regiment will take place early in the ensuing month, at some appropriate place in the vicinity, and it will doubtless tend to revive the drooping spirits of our citizen soldiery. It is but a short pe noa since mis was an annual duty, by law established, and for this purpose every company had 1 ts full compliment of tents.

But the law, for some supposed wise purpose, waa repealed, and a parsimonious Legislature ordered the tenia to be sold. only one company" ours "retained them by purchase, so the old period of three or four days will necessarily be reduced to one of twenty four hours. This will still be enough for the reaular routine of camp duty, reveille, drill, guard mount ing, parade, review, posting sentinels, and the "grand rounds." Of course the 8 Danish Consul will establish a strict espionage, lest we be convert ed Into an organized force of FiUibnsters.
